Information about Shree Ranachandika Prapatti from 'RamRajya 2025' -
Now for the 'Shreerannachandika naimittik prapatti' for men.
This may be offered on any Monday of the month of Shravan. Just the one day (Sankranti) for women and a choice of four or even five Mondays for the men! Why is that? That is because not only the energy centres of women but also their capacity to receive and absorb differ considerably from those of men. Besides, this is how Nature has made them both. The difference moreover, is to be traced to the hormones that are specific to the gender. The day of the Sankranti for the women and any Monday of the month of Shravan for the men, is an arrangement made in consideration of this difference and not meant to give any special facility to the men.
Do you know who is worshipped on the Monday of the month of Shravan? The Shivashankar for one, yes sure. Who else? Do you remember the other picture that we include in the poojan. How many of you do all this in the first place? Whose pictures are these? Jeevatyaa and Narsimha. The poojan on the Monday of the Shravan is addressed to Nrisimha. The Nrismha form is half lion and half man. Every man must have the firm belief that the Nrisimha is indeed the Trivikram and the Trivikram is the Nrisimha, they are one and the same. The men offer their prapatti after sunset but individually and separately whereas the women do it after sunset of course but as a group, collectively. The open space enhances the capacity of the women to receive and absorb whereas in case of men, it is enclosed space that enhances their capacity to receive and absorb. Besides, their capacities of energy acceptance too differ and so the men will sit at home (enclosed space) and the women will offer the prapatti outdoors in open space.

After a bath, sit before the image of the Trivikram and when it is past sunset, recite the Shreegurukshetram mantra nine times. Then recite the mantra ‘Om Namashchandikaayaee’ 108 times. This mantra was born of the loud roar of the Devisinha, who is in fact the Paramatma and no different from the Trivikram, the original form of Nrisinha. What was the purpose behind the creation of this mantra? Valour! The mantra is the most eminent, the supreme one of all that gives valour to men. First recite the Gurukshetram mantra nine times because it is the mantra of the Trivikram too and then recite 108 times ‘Om Namashchandikaayaee’, the mantra that was born of the roar of the devisinha. Now placing the image of the Trivikram on the head, recite the Gurukshetram mantra nine times all over again. This will initiate and cause the very essence or core feature of the Nrisinha, i.e. of the Devisinha to flow, travel from the head through the entire body. There is no better remedy to rid of timidity and weakness. The radiant energy of the Nrisinha enters your body and prepares and equips you to become a soldier, capable of protecting the home, the dharma and the country. The prapatti renders the woman too capable of protecting her household and family if she prays for it. If she prays to the Chandika wishing to become the protector of the dharma and the country apart from her family, she is made into a capable soldier to do so. Is that clear? So that is how the Shreerannachandika prapatti makes of the man, a protecting soldier of the family, the dharma and the country.
Let us come back to the details of the procedure. Offer the Trivikram, a naivedya of a banana along with a mixture of curds and sugar. The banana and the curds (with sugar) are to be offered in separate bowls, do not mix in the two. The one offering the prapatti will eat a spoonful of the curds (mixed with sugar). Give the banana as Prasad, to both the men and the women in the family. Now come back and sit before the Trivikram and eat all of the remaining curds looking at the Trivikram all along as you do so. Curds enhances the oj (valour). The oj of the Trivikram, that is received in the form of vibrations, is absorbed or taken in, in the form of curds. Then offer fragrant flowers to the Trivikram and then offer the lotangan. The flowers come right at the end, if you noticed! Flowers are meant to express gratitude, to thank. Any man above the age of sixteen can do the prapatti. Remember the Shreerannachandika prapatti is not to be done in a group; it has got to be done individually, all by yourself.
The prapatti can make of men and women alike, valiant soldiers apart from making them the protector-bodyguards at least of their family. When every single family is protected, it follows that the nation is and so is the dharma.
